   About Colab
I started making music under the name Colab in 1985 in Stockholm, Sweden, together with my older brother. We never actually created anything of significance, but it got us both started making music.

At the time, we played on a Roland SH-5 accompanied by a synced TB-303/TR-606 combo and recorded on a two-track Fostex (with tape delay). Later, we went separate ways musically, and I invested in a Roland D-10 and an Atari ST/Steinberg Pro 24 and spun off the musical style from industrial sounds to a more ambient electronic sound.

Musically, I took a hiatus for many years and focused more on just playing piano. Then in 2002 I discovered Propellerhead Reason and revived Colab as an outlet for more illbient electronic instrumental music, and currently make all my music off Reason in my home studio in Toronto, Canada.

I do both personal work and produce other people's music. This page will contain a mix of both.

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

i have already learned enough about production since i started at ccm that i'm embarrassed of the mix-quality of most of the songs on my page...
